The Golden Rule: Music taste is subjective so don't be a gatekeeping asshole. There's no "bad music", only music you like or don't like.

We Are A Community: So no racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, or spam.

This short-lived Flying Nun Records band was led by "the punk rock self-belief" of Shayne Carter, who went on to play and release music as part of Doublehappys, Straitjacket Fits, Dimmer, The Adults (a Kiwi supergroup), with NZ post-punk luminary, Peter Jefferies and solo as Shayne P. Carter.

I like the youthful energy of the song, even though it sounds like it was recorded in a burlap sack!

This is the full run down about the EP that this track is from. It was re-issued for Record Store Day, a few years ago.
